Chapter 129: The Gift of the Ancestors (18)
Luo Qi saw a "I don't know" about to habitually come out of the mouth of Boss Zhao's young old fritters, but at the last moment he paused and changed his mind, and a new thought appeared on his face. From refusal to wanting to cooperate, finding some bargain from them, this turn is as steep as a cliff. In Boss Zhao's consciousness world, this jump in thinking was nothing, and Luo Qi vaguely felt his unusually sensitive thinking, as well as almost no emotional burden.
"I've been looking for the little traces of Du's left," he said slowly, looking so much more honest that even Rocky couldn't tell if it was true that he was ready to tell the truth when he was unburdened at the moment. "It's too hard for me to do alone. To be honest, it was my predecessor who discovered that Du Shi may be the breakthrough point of Qionglin's secret, and he spent his whole life trying to decipher Du Shi and invested his whole life's energy. The reason why I was able to be chosen to follow him was not for anything else, but because I had a little bit of Du's bloodline. ”
Roach wears the thought that Boss Zhao is charismatic when he's not so inflated, that he can be extremely contagious, and that he can attract others to listen to what he thinks whenever he wants. When Boss Zhao spoke, his eyes looked at them frankly, and those eyes seemed to yearn to reach their souls. But Rocky knew that he had no interest in their souls at all, and he only looked at people this way because he knew that it would make others think he cared about them.
Boss Zhao's words were addressed to Du Zhengyi, but his eyes were mainly towards Luo Qi, as if they had something in common and something that could resonate with a smile. Roach looked at him indifferently, and suppressed the disgusting and curious emotions that he had unconsciously swelled up. The corridor was bare and depressing, and the place could not calm him, and the emotions he had pressed in the depths of his consciousness were like snakes, writhing in the abyss under the manhole cover.
"We've studied the Sealed Lands the most, and we've made some progress." Boss Zhao continued, "I know that every sealed place has guardian spirits, or fragments of souls, or half of souls created by the ancestor mage, and I have also luckily mastered some ways to communicate with guardian spirits. The last time we met in a hurry in the Burning Valley, I think you'd probably guess how well I knew about it. ”
Luo Qi saw Du Zhengyi nod slightly, "It's not the first time you've discovered the Sealed Land. ”
"Yes." Boss Zhao honestly admitted, "Most of them are empty, and they are dangerous, and we have paid a huge price." ”
Roach thought of the former leader of the Lotus Burners who had died on the Highland Mage Divine Mountain, and he was one of the costs. This also explains why he chose such a young assistant, why he was closest to him when he was dying, and why he ended up putting the power in the hands of this young assistant.
But......
"Most?" Du Zhengyi said.
"It's true that I've been lucky enough to encounter the remnants of the Sealed Lands, but I'm afraid those places were not registered in the Ancestor Period and were not very valued. It seems that it has been abandoned in ancient times, neglected for thousands of years, and the only remaining sealing beasts are some harmless little things to humans and animals. Boss Zhao smiled at Luo Qi, "For example, the beloved kitten that Master Luo bought for zero yuan." ”
"I thought it was smuggled goods from Qionglin." Roach said.
"Qionglin did shed some, but it was very aggressive, it was a psychic beast that could be weaponized, beast, haven't you seen it outside?" Boss Zhao said calmly, "It's different here, maybe this is the last remaining key relic of an ancient mage in this world, except for the Lonely Mountain." ”
Roach looked at him, so that's why he, Boss Zhao, and Clownfish were all here. It's a walkthrough, and the experience gained from exploring it will help them get into the depths of the lonely mountain. Oh, of course, that's why Du Zhengyi has to be here too, he's a lonely mountain guard.
"As long as you can find an approximate location here." Boss Zhao smiled at Du Zhengyi, "I can also feel the call of the guardian spirit. ”
"You said that those mages led the things that attacked us were flowed out by Qionglin?" Du Zheng asked with a displeased face.
"Master Du, we are pressed for time, we can find a chance to trade these things in the future." Boss Zhao said, Du Zhengyi didn't interrupt him, he continued, "Judging from my intelligence, this is a heavyweight sealing place. I've also received magical messages from the Guardian Spirits, and I know that the reserves of Sealed Beasts here are staggering and well-preserved. But most importantly, the seal here is about to crumble. ”
Luo Qi glanced at Du Zhengyi unconsciously, and he knew if Du Zhengyi also knew so much. Du Zhengyi needs Liu Ziyu's help to capture the magic message, and he can't use magic as he wants.
Boss Zhao continued, "But you see, this bit of my bloodline inheritance can be interpreted very limitedly. I'll be honest, I can only passively accept the information that the Sealed Lands are willing to give me. I know the Sealed Lands are crying for help, but that's about it. But the real Du Shi can take the initiative to use the magic here. In other words, the Sealed Spirit that can command here, your blood has inherited the authority here, and I believe that your mind has also inherited the magic that controls here. ”
Roach moved, and the clownfish turned to him, "Roach, I believe that this exorcism magic is less energy than boiling a pot of water, and it won't do anything to your friend." ”
Boss Zhao smiled apologetically at them, as if he was sorry for the clownfish's unkindness. "Master Du can work in front of me, you have a strong mind, I can't get your spells, and I can't make your bloodline as pure as you. I can't steal your magic, and I'll never be able to do what you can. ”
"Master Zhao." Du Zhengyi finally said, "You know that I want to destroy everything here, right? You rushed over, lost your troops, and went through hardships and dangers, is it just to watch the excitement? ”
"Being able to see the magic of the ancestors with our own eyes is also the lifelong pursuit of those of us who are idealists." Boss Zhao said indifferently.
Du Zhengyi looked at him, and he smiled, "Do I still have a choice?" If I had been one step earlier, maybe the magic here would have been more stable than it is now. ”
"Wait a minute."
Roach immediately turned his head to look at the person who was speaking, and the doctor could easily not speak on such an occasion. "What's wrong with you?" He asked Mahjong nervously. Mahjong seemed to be thinking hard, and Rocky wanted to help him with so much force. "The burden on my shoulders seems to be lighter."
"What?" Luo Qi never imagined that mahjong would be able to jump out at this time. But the others obviously didn't think so, and for a moment the atmosphere of the battle mages froze a little. "What's wrong?"
Du Zhengyi said in a low voice, "The medical tangles are probably loosened a few times." ”
Roach's heart tightened, "Someone who went to the top of the mountain? ”
